A Guide to Becoming a Background Character in Yokohama

My name is Yamamoto Mai, and I'm an ordinary first-year high school girl. So why would something so extraordinary happen to someone as ordinary as me? It all started on an ordinary morning on my way to school, when I happened to witness a Mafia deal. Seriously, Yokohama may be a bustling port city, but I'd never heard of an organization called the Mafia here. Unfortunately, they spotted me and took care of me. Before the reel of my short life had even finished playing, I opened my eyes again and saw the ceiling of my own room. That's right. A new day had begun all over again. Then I realized my world had completely changed. Seriously, since when did Yokohama have a place called the Suribachi City? And there were abandoned children living there too. That's illegal, you know. As a law-abiding citizen, of course I called the police to report it~ So why was I the one who ended up raising this child? I was only a sixteen-year-old girl in the bloom of youth. Was I really supposed to take on the burden of a whole family? Every time I died, time in my world shifted. But I never expected it to make the child by my side disappear. The burden I'd taken on unwillingly had become family I had to get back. Chuya, no matter how many times it takes, I'll find you. Nakahara Chuya: There's always someone around me who feels strangely familiar, even though I've never met her before. I can't stop thinking about her... Please don't leave. [PS: OOC! OOC! OOC! I'll try to stay true to the original, but I can't guarantee that in a fan work. There are original elements.] [This story will soon go premium. Chapters 1–21 will become paid on August 21.] Currently updating: The Game Character Plays Games! As a max-level character in a wuxia game, Zhuoli has maxed out all her equipment and skills. One day, she entered a bizarre-looking beginner's bonus level. Naturally, she slaughtered her way through the whole place! Zhuoli: Aren't bonus levels supposed to give players free rewards? Other beginner players: Do you think we only took the guaranteed points because we didn't want more? Lu Yan saw Zhuoli for the first time in a team dungeon. Lu Yan: The moment I saw you, I knew you were my wife. Zhuoli: Why does this guy keep showing up everywhere? Lu Yan: Wherever my wife is, that's where I'll be.
